Alanna Nash (Col Parker biographer) to receive ANOTHER award !
Alanna Nash will be the recipient of the 2009 Charlie Lamb award in the career category. Her nominator stated "Esquire magazine was already calling Alanna Nash one of country music's "heavy hundred" in 1982, and what they were referring to then, and what the CMA knew when it gave her their media achievement award in 2004, still holds today: she's been a master of the detailed performer profile interview, consistently getting answers from performers others can't get to talk at all, to questions nobody else has quite had the insight to ask.
Her book-length biographies of Dolly Parton and
Colonel Tom Parker are great examples of challenging subjects taken on with tireless resolve and care--and with results to match." The Charlie Lamb awards will be presented at the Friday, 22 May ICMC luncheon in the The First Lecture Hall of the Gordon E. Inman Center at Belmont University in Nashville
